praying we trade back and take ross. this team has a lot of aging vets, when they hit the wall this team will need a huge rebuild. need to start that process now so the transition isnt so rocky.

wr, ot, rb, s, te, lb, c, g are all in need of attention. this draft has a lot of talent that while not transcendant can give you guys that will be 10 year vets. need to restock the cupboard.

Not opposed to trading back and picking up more guys in the 2nd/3rd. But at the same time, I want an instant game changing playmaker on either side of the ball in the 1st. Don't think CM falls enough to get him if you trade back. But maybe he could.

Would prefer Saquan Barkley out of PSU in next years draft to replace Stew. I think he's even better than CM and LF in terms of NFL fit. He's gonna beast in the league.

Trade back for Ross and then trade back into late 1st for a top defensive player who falls to help get younger on that side of the ball.

Then draft Barkley and a other top defensive player in 18.

Barkley and Ross will carry the offense.

4. Jaguars: Jonathan Allen - DT - Alabama

The Jaguars have plenty of needs, but they should go with the best-available player — Allen. New Jags’ top man Tom Coughlin knows the value of a dominant defensive line — he has two rings on his fingers because of them.

Saw this in a mock. Makes sense if Tom is pulling the strings. Can anyone see this happening? Or is the consensus that the Jags are going with LF?

My best guess right now:

1 CLE - Garrett
2 SF - Thomas
3 CAR (From CHI for #8 and 2018 1st rounder) - Fournette
4 JAX - Allen
5 CLE (From TEN for #12, #52, and their 2018 1st rounder) - Trubisky
6 NYJ - Lattimore
7 LAC - Hooker
8 CHI - Adams
9 CIN - Barnett
10 BUF - Reddick
11 NO - McCaffrey
12 TEN - Humphrey
13 ARI - Mahomes
14 PHI - Harris
15 IND - Foster
16 BAL - Howard
17 WAS - McDowell
18 TEN - Davis
19 TB - Cook
20 DEN - Ramczyk
21 DET - Tim Williams
22 MIA - Lamp
23 NYG - McKinley
24 OAK - Bolles
25 HOU - Watson
26 SEA - Awuzie
27 KC - Kizer
28 DAL - Tabor
29 GB - Conley
30 PIT - Njoku
31 ATL - Robinson
32 NO - Charlton

If we use 2 1sts on a RB that is one dimensional I'm going to....

well, honestly, I don't know what I would do.

I really think I'd prefer staying at #8, but I really think Jacksonville will take Fournette at #4 if we don't move ahead of them to get him.

If he is our guy, as some reports and sources indicate, I would think that Rivera and Gettleman are on the hot seat enough to mortgage a future draft pick to make sure they get their guy. They'd rather do this and retain the picks we currently have for this year's draft.

I've always been a Fournette fan, but I don't necessarily agree with a trade up to #3 either.

My gut is really telling me that we might dangle Derek Anderson out there to either CLE, SF, or CHI as part of a trade.

I honestly hope that none of what you are describing comes true.

Personally, I don't think that Ron's job is in danger...and I certainly don't think that DG's is.

I'm not sold that their seats are as hot as some, but one can't deny that our previous two seasons have been pretty bipolar.

If you are going to go "all in on a RB" I would prefer to stay at 8, or possibly slide a bit and select CmC....then sign Blount as our "backup" to Stew and call it a day.

Three fully capable RB's to compete.

Hahahahahaha. We're not trading away two first rounders for one player. 

How else do you think we make the supposed trade up? Most of the rest of this year's early draft picks? It would take at least both seconds and our third, but probably more.

If Fournette is truly the guy we want bad enough to trade up, then a future 1st is the most logical way to do so.

Believe me, I'd love to keep pick #8 and still be able to pick third, but I don't see Chicago, or any trade up partner shy of Tennessee willing to vacate the top ten completely.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
